Why don't more people take a year or two off between undergraduate school and medical school and work two or three jobs to save money up to pay for medical school on their own? The two years out of medical school can be used to work three jobs, one normal day time job and a night job. So you would work a job for the first shift and second shift. Then pick up a third job to work on the weekends. You would work a good 100 hours a week, but you would in theory be able to do this from May of graduation until the following June when the application cycle starts. So you could work 100 hours a week for 26 months. If you get the first job to pay around 25 dollars an hour, the second job to pay a good 25 dollars an hour, and the weekend job to pay about 15 dollars an hour, you could make about 215,680kdollars in the 26 months (pre-tax) and be able to pay for all of your medical school education.
You would leave medical school debt free.
